Could be, we will never know. Thing with Carlos and managers like him, smoke and mirrors. However looking at his time with Swansea. Seem to remember them suffering a raft of injuries. In a short spell. Then players here complaining (Boyd) that training wasn't as intense as he would like. Towards the end, some very bizarre stuff. As things unravelled.

Pale Rider Posted September 20, 2018 Share Posted September 20, 2018 Great sitcom Carlos - Seasoned wide boy who thinks he’s more sophisticated than he is. Jos - Underling wanting to achieve more than his limitations will ever allow. Chasiri - Cuckoo in the nest striving to be accepted. Must be be called - Only fools and Wednesday fans. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So how long will he blamed for something that wasn’t really his responsibility in the first place? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Based on a personal dislike of a manager then it’s more the players than the manager when it goes well but suddenly becomes the manager’s fault when the form dips. Oh this old tired canard. Been a lament as old as time, no? A gaffer's remit is to galvanize team and pull the entire org out of any prolonged absences of form. CC could not.

Fans can’t have it both ways. Bet he couldn’t have picked a youth player out in a line up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My comment about the forest match was around Jos's seemingly absence of any cajoling/sorting things out during the match.There are times when he's just too laid back for me, should be up and telling the players if they're not doing what he wants.

Beholder Posted September 22, 2018 Share Posted September 22, 2018 Article in the Times from Carlos today saying I'm not happy if my team win but don't perform well. Well that happened many times with us he can't have been very happy at all. Such a bullshitter. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fred mciver Posted September 25, 2018 Share Posted September 25, 2018 He's also back in The Times today talking about his 3 favourite Owls players. Bannon, Lee and Hutch. Would be interesting to know his views on other players, especially those signed while Head Coach. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
